Why, why, WHY don't people use See All???

I don't get it.

There's plenty to moan about with Mumsnet. It's not the most user-friendly when it comes to replying to people.

But one feature that is helpful is See All. It takes seconds, literally, to see whether the op has updated. Why wouldn't you use it if the thread you're posting on is already a few pages long?

Is it just that people don't give a shit about 'discussion', they just want to do the online version of standing up, yelling an opinion and walking away?

Apart from anything else, it makes people look stupid when they're imploring a poster to get over something they've already got over 3 or 4 pages ago...

I use the app. Until recently it wasn't an option. I went looking for it now after reaching the post and I found it hidden in a menu that I've never noticed before. The app is improving but give people time to explore it a bit.

I’ve always used the app and been able to see all OP posts.

The option is always been there on the app for as long as I’ve used it. Not a hidden menu, literally just a filter image at the top! You press the filter/funnel in the top right then select the OP’s name.

Hi @CremeEggsForBreakfast which version of the app are you using? Android or iOS?

SteelyEyed · 16/05/2025 12:14

Agree 100%, OP!

People can be such numptys, drives me mad

I can't see a see all at all on the android app *edit ignore that. I can see it

JoMumsnet · 16/05/2025 14:18

@CremeEggsForBreakfast have just checked and you're right - the old version of the Android app didn't have the See All option, but the new updated version does so it's definitely a feature on both iOS and Android.

We still don't know the answer to @2ndbestslayer's original question, though! Smile
